Connor Roberts Injuries

'Connor, no. He's had a little bit of a setback; he'll be a little longer now. It's probably looking [like] a few months for Connor, which is not ideal and a big setback for us.' 'There was an issue there in and around his Achilles that we thought we could maybe manage a little bit. There were some options, a more conservative option, which we went down the route of, but that hasn’t seemed to work. We’ve now got to that point where we've made a decision to actually get this fixed now.' 'Connor, more long-term, really, I don't see him being available in the coming weeks/months.' 'You see a photograph of them on social media these days, and instantly, people think they are ready. These guys ain't ready yet. They are some weeks away; they've missed a lot of football. They are in the early stages of coming back, which is a positive.' 'Connor, no, will still be a little way off.' 'Connor Roberts is still not available.' 'Connor Roberts will be in an Under-21s game this week. Apart from that, everybody's fit and available.'

'Connor played this morning in a game. I think he got about 65 to 70 minutes, so that was pleasing. He just had a slight problem, but we're managing that and he's in a good place at the moment.' 'He won't be ready for this weekend. The likelihood is [that] Connor will probably feature back after the international break. He's had an injection, and things seem to be progressing in the right way.' 'He's back on the grass. He's reacting in the right way, but he's still probably a few weeks away. We'll see how the next couple of weeks go when we pick up his work, and hopefully, he comes through that and keeps improving.' 'He's on the grass and he's progressed, but he's still not with us. His work's increased a lot, so hopefully it won’t be too long now for Connor.' 'Connor is back training with us... Maybe this weekend comes a bit early. He seems to be moving in the right direction. He's been training with us for the last two or three days. Hopefully, that will continue over the international period.'

"Connor probably needs a full week on the grass before being considered, but he will be a real good asset to us."

"Connor has got a minor thigh situation on his way back from injury, he wouldn't have figured anyway, needs a bit more game-time."
